You don't, unless you mean for your own private copy of R (which I guess
you don't as you mention CVS). Only R-core can alter the distributed R
sources.
You can request R-core to make an addition, but that needs a reasoned
argument (including why all of the existing categories are inappropriate).
Note that `keywords' is a misnomer -- these are really categories.
You can use \concept to add keywords (in that manual your previous posting
showed unfamiliarity with, Writing R Extensions).
